If this analysis proves correct, it kinda puts another chink in Kerry's armor...
The communists pulled this trick a lot in Russia, Cuba, and Vietnam:
The above book just covers Russia. The BETTER book is Alain Jaubert's earlier Making People Disappear which also covers Nazi Germany, Fidel's Cuba, and 1960s Vietnam.
Not saying that it is what happened, just that there is historical precedence.
I am skeptical, think it needs more info for confirmation...
RU 6 ..RU 8..?
You seem to forget that the pic that started it all was officers who, by the new definition of the DNC, did not "serve" with Kerry, because they were on different boats.
So the pic makes perfect sense. They may have met. Maybe even had a few beers together. But, unless they were on the same boat, at the same time, under fire, they never "served" together by the Kerry definition.
Control freaks like hitlery come unglued when unable to control the situation....with all this stuff flowing out about John F'n "flip-flop fop" Kerry (not a dribble anymore), shrillary is definetely not pulling the strings.
Truth is a danger that Kerry must avoid.
How pathetic.
As a Viet Nam Veteran myself (May 68-July 69) I find myself totally disgusted with Kerry.
He slandered all of us and now he poses as a hero, assuming the American people will believe him.
The day will come when Kerry will rot in Hell.
Well, this wound has been festering for 35 years - it's time for this to end. If bringing down Kerry will help heal this nation with regards to Viet Nam, then I am 1000% behind it...
It's personal for me - My father served in Viet Nam, with the 1/5 1st cavalry Division (Airmobile) 68-69. He was never the same, and afterwards he wasn't the same man my mother married.
Do you know what your dad thinks of Kerry? If you talk to him, would you mind asking? I'm so curious.
Well, he's never talked about Viet Nam much. I don't blame him, really.
You pull a thread here and a thread there, and pretty soon the entire fabric of Kerry's story has come apart.
This is just stunning. We're witnessing the historic unraveling of a presidential campaign up close. Probably 90% of the electorate are still unaware, but not for long!
Well, I don't either - but I wondered what he thought, because it seems that very few veterans of that era (or any other) have anything good to say about Kerry.
If proves true, you my friend are awesome in research.
Maybe it's time I called him, and ask. It's been at least 5 years since we've spoken...
Bump for donate to the Swift Boat Vets, keep the story alive.

Strange definition of serving. When I was in the service I got to know literally all of the people in my shop. We had about 16, 4 man teams and believe me, we all knew what the others were doing all the time. In fact, I wasn't socially friendly with the other 3 on my team, but rather dozens from the other squads.
I suppose that NASCAR drivers really don't know Jeff Gordon, how he works, what moves they can anticipate etc. because they don't ride around with him at work.
The "Not in his boat" crowd is really fairly pathetic. I was watching a Democratic pundit the other day reciting the pledge: I pledge allegiance to the “not in his boat” flag of the United States of America. And to the republic “not in his boat” for which it stands, “not in the same boat” one nation…….
We should take up a collection to help these poor souls. They are really comic relief to watch on television. LOL :)
"John Kerry is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life."
They are not real.
